In this episode, we talk about the dangers of Cultural Appropriation and how we need to learn to be people that focus on Cultural Celebration. Join us as we share stories of how we have practiced cultural celebration in our marriage, and more importantly, give you the tools to celebrate your partner’s culture.  SUBSCRIBE Apple | Google | Spotify | Stitcher | HIGHLIGHTS  What is cultural misappropriation? Cultural appropriation is the adoption of an element or elements of one culture or identity by members of another culture or identity. This can be controversial when members of a dominant culture appropriate from minority cultures. (Wikimedia)  Why is Cultural Appropriation dangerous?  It objectifies the values and symbols of one's culture and history.  It's counterfeit for diversity. It erases the identity of the curator. Cultural Celebration  We have coined this term because we believe that cultural preservation and intentionality come through the celebration of one's culture. For example, When we got married, we had a Zimbabwean rehearsal dinner in which we brought Pai’s culture in the process and Christina’s family had the opportunity to participate. How to practice Cultural Celebration  Be aware of the cultural context.  Learn, understand and value the story.   Give credit where credit is due.
